790 PointsDo I need to download Cpanel?
Why does this course assume that people know what Cpanel is? How do I access it? I tried downloading it but not sure what to do here.

Cpanel is not something you download, rather just use. If you're having trouble logging into your cPanel dashboard, contact your web host support team, and they should be able to help you.

790 PointsI accessed it by typing my domain name/cpanel. But now I can not log in. I tried the login information from the email from the domain hosting service but it is not working.
